Monument "In Memory of Samogitian District Partisans and Freedom Fights"

 

Sculptor - R.Midvikis, architect - Algirdas Žebrauskas

Telšiai political prisoners and deportees were the first to initiate the initiative for the appearance of this monument. For several years there stood a pebble with an inscription about the future monument. The monument was built at the expense of the Lithuanian Resistance and Genocide Research Center. Such monuments will be erected in the centers of all counties of the country. In the post-war years, the teams of the Samogitian Legion, later the Samogitian district "Šatrijos", "Alka", "Kardo" opposed the occupiers in Telšiai district. Hundreds of these national team fighters were killed in the fighting. The monument is also dedicated to the memory of the freedom struggles of 1831, 1863, 1918, 1991.
